Flying with a sprained foot

October 13, 2014 | 15,00 EUR | answered by Christian Welsch

Hello, this morning I sprained my ankle on my way to the train. I am flying to Greece for 6 days. The ankle is swollen but the foot doesn't hurt when I walk. I have a 2-hour flight. I hope it doesn't harm my foot. I was really looking forward to the vacation. Which cream should I get at the airport? Should I also get a bandage?

Dear questioner, get yourself a Voltaren gel and put on a bandage. Regards, Welsch
